1975 Dodge Coronet

Ok everyone check it out.
Let me start by giving a cliche: I have a baby on the way and it's my fourth. I really do have too many cars in the driveway. Four of my cars can be daily driven so I need to let 2 of the six cars that I have been gone. So I'm starting with my 75 dodge. I have here for your dream building pleasure, a 1975 Dodge Coronet that started its life in west Texas or at least ended up there because that's were i found it. It is almost completely rust free with the exception of few insignificant spots. All the doors close like new. The interior should all be there in the trunk (no lock for trunk) if not most of it. It needs to be put back together. It was parked since 2005 at least.
Ok, so I took off the two barrel intake and put a high rise four barrel with Holley. Cleaned out the tank and have placed new alternator, fuel pump, and filters. It stops good and goes. I do have the issue were I get it running and it starts to starve for fuel? maybe fuel lines or rebuild the carb..not sure. The other issue (leaking oil) is that I placed a larger oil drain plug but still leaks (very frustrating) through the drain plug. The car needs a good cleaning for sure but nothing is torn and door panels look new.
I put some electric fans that need to be wired. I have them straight to the battery for the meantime. The steering wheel is loosely on and dash is off.
I don't know what to say other than this; You will not find one like this for this price. Believe me, I've been looking. I'm not looking to get rich but need the money. It has brand spanking new tires all around with new hubcaps. My dream for this car was to make it look like an unmarked Police car or something to that effect.
There is no reserve with the opening bid being the least of which I"ll take, obviously. You can not drive this car home, it is not dependable yet. Needs wrench time, especially with the oil dripping (one drip per five seconds more a less) from the oil drain plug. Might (pretty sure) need a new oil pan. You are responsible for hauling it away. I will help you though if time permits (if not at work) to load it etc.
Feel free to ask any questions through eBay or if you need more pictures. Almost forgot to mention. I replaced the freeze plugs that sit between the motor and trans so you won't have to worry about those anytime soon. And motor does sound strong. I've been around the block a couple of times.
